Abstract

In the rapid development of sponge city construction in China, porous asphalt pavement has been widely used. The high-viscosity modified asphalt used for porous asphalt pavements is utilised in a complex aging environment. In this study, infrared spectroscopy was used to test the changes in the functional groups of high-viscosity modified asphalt under the influence of ultraviolet radiation intensity, high temperature, and water corrosion conditions. The research results showed that under the influence of several environmental factors, the high-viscosity modified asphalt has no chemical reaction but does undergo physical changes. From the perspective of the functional group index, the carbonyl index is more suitable for evaluating the degree of ultraviolet aging, and the sulfoxide group index is more suitable for evaluating the effect of temperature on aging. The high-viscosity modified asphalt aging kinetic models, established with different functional group indexes as indicators, have different activation energies. The aging kinetic model established with the carbonyl index is more suitable for simulating traditional thermal-oxidative aging. This study provides a better plan to reveal the influence of different environmental factors on the aging performance of high-viscosity modified asphalt under complex environmental conditions.
